"It isn't the changes that do you in, it's the transitions. Change is not the same as transition. Change is situational: the new site, the new boss, the new team roles, the new policy. Transition is the psychological process people go through to come to terms with the new situations. Change is external, transition is internal." - William Bridges

The County organization is experiencing changes that create transitions and have the potential of impacting most employees at all levels. "County Transitions" offers assistance for employees at all levels of the organization by providing information and services related to coping skills, layoff policies and procedures, stress management, health, emotional well-being, and individual and group support.

"County Transitions" is organized and provided through a collaborative effort of Employee Development, Employee Wellness, Human Resources, Benefits, and Labor Relations of the Employee Services Agency, and the Employee Assistance Program, Health and Hospital System.
